LIGHTNING

Your security console dialer has built- in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line and power line current. These pro- tection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your console dialer.

Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we sug- gest that you unplug your console and rely on its battery power during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
